Vorpal The Hexapod Scratch Programming Guide

NOTE: THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

Vorpal is integrated with the MIT Scratch programming language, which is a simple drag-and-drop system. It is used all over the world to teach programming in elementary school, middle school, and even high school.

Setting Up Scratch for Vorpal

The Vorpal system provides a Scratch Extension in order to control the robot. Because this is an extension beyond the basic Scratch language, you need to go to the Scratch Extensions website: www.scratchx.org. Scratch extensions can only be used from a browser over the Internet, so you must have an Internet connection.
